Paul Haggis Gossip

As you’ve probably heard by now, Leah Remini broke up with the Church of Scientology. Apparently she’d been questioning Church practices, specifically the leadership of Tom Cruise’s BFF David Miscavige, the megalomaniacal head of Scientology, and asking too many questions about his wife, who’s allegedly been missing for a few years, even though Church officials insist she’s safe and doing Xenu’s work.

Get the popcorn ready. There’s a war coming. And it looks like we all get to watch. And they’re doing it Hollywood revenge styles. So, like, totally our favourite kind of catfight. Only this might bring a few more chills. Remember how Paul Haggis, Oscar-winning director, used to be a Scientologist – for over 30 years! – and he realised how f-cked they are so he broke up with Xenu in 2009 and threatened to go public with what he knows? Well… It sounds like he’s going public. Full Story

Major Xenu drama involving a powerful Hollywood player, have you heard? Paul Haggis, a member of the Church of Scientology for 35 years, is openly criticising the GMD’s religion with a letter made public detailing the reasons for his renouncement, repudiating Church policies, and exposing controversial policies for which the Church has previously been heavily criticised.

The relationship between Haggis and the Church began breaking down when he and his wife were forced to “disconnect” from her family following their decision to exit Scientology. The situation was exacerbated by the Church’s perceived support of Prop 8, denying equality to gay couples in California. Several months ago, Haggis implored Church executives to reprimand Scientologists who were making homophobic statements and supporting the bill. Despite promises to do so, the Church failed to denounce the offenders resulting in what Haggis called the “tacit” encouragement of “bigots, hypocrites and homophobes”.

It’s turning into a public relations disaster for Xenu and friends.

Snaps for Paul Haggis. But please protect Paul Haggis too.

This is a high profile, well respected member of the celebrity community not only revealing Church secrets but breaking rank with the Church in front of the entire world. And you know how the Church handles its enemies. You are right to worry for Paul. Perhaps Mark Wahlberg and his boys can take care of Paul. Mark Wahlberg isn’t a fan of the GMD’s worship house and isn’t afraid to admit it. Mark Wahlberg also likes a good rumble.

Me no likey her dress for the gala premiere of In The Valley of Elah at the Venice Film Festival, though I suppose if someone HAD to wear it, if the dress HAD to be worn, only Charlize could have pulled off a pageant frock without looking like a complete mess. In fact, far from. However, I much prefer her white short lacy number (must have it!) at the photocall earlier in the day if only for this view of her legs, even more elongated by the nude heels.
